I Just Walk Away
Chapter 24
Previous Chapter Next ChapterWith a swing of a wooden bat Trixie knocks a couple of teeth out of the mouth of Senator Ethan Roark Sr. who has been stripped naked in the center of Basin City, with many news crews filming the scene. The reason why no one is stopping Trixie from beating the senator is because of the army of battle droids covering the crowd. Then there's the warships and the big warship that's hovering over the city, which kept the arm forces at bay. The big warship is using a tractor beam to hold a big piece of space rock which if anyone tries to interfere with Trixie would drop the rock which not only destroy the city but most likely end all life on the planet.
"You know Roark if you would had just merely let the fact that you lost in a game of cards to me go. None of this would be happening," Trixie said as she swings the bat again this time aiming for the senator's chest, breaking a rib or two.
"Stop!" Roark pleaded to her.
"Oh please as if you had listen as you had beaten your wife to death," Trixie said.
"I didn't...," Roark began before he was kicked in the face.
"Please, I know for the fact you did. Seeing how you said that to me after you sent your goons to grab me so you could steal my winnings back. Which I recorded with my holo-glasses that I was wearing," Trixie said as she brings up a hologram screen into the air where everyone could see it.
On the screen Trixie is sitting in Roark's limo after she was pulled into it by his goons and sat in the chair that's facing him. And he was telling her how things work around here and how much power he has. Trixie just sat there unaffected as she egged him on in revealing how much he gets away with. Then when he told his goons to beat and rape her is when she finally acted. Displaying her magical powers ripping the limo apart then blasted Roark and his goons destroying their clothes leaving them naked before she flew off.
"There I just showed everyone what you told me in your limo thinking that your goons would take care of me. But instead I showed you where you stand. Me being an alien from another world who has her own personal army of robots. Which truth to be told are all just security and worker robots for the giant mining ship that's hovering over the city. But here on this planet is enough for me to do what I want," Trixie said.
"What more do you want?" Roark asked seeing how helpless he is. There are several robots around him who all are aiming their weapons at him ready to open fire. There isn't even a chance for a sniper as he's inside a force field.
"I want you to put in your bank information here," Trixie said showing him the laptop computer with a transfer of his entire bank account waiting for his password. "All the money you and your family has is going to go up in smoke. Transferred to so many places on this planet that you'll never get it all back."
"No," Roark said knowing that if he is going to survive this if he'll need all the money he has.
"Yes you realize that once I make you do this then there's nothing left to stop the wolves from huffing and puffing your door down. So many enemies that you have made over the years not to mention rivals in the government who will be doing everything that they can to bring you down, dragging you through the mud. And without your money there is no way to pay off the right people to make things go away, well there is still all the blackmail you must have gathered but still, with me being the first alien that show herself in such a way that there's no way to ever cover this up. With my ship which is just an old mining ship that is holding a rock big enough to kill all life on this planet overhead and an army of old security robots having taken a major city, not to mention this is being broadcasted all over the world. The whole world is watching this senator, the whole world watching this where me an alien is holding the whole world hostage just so I can beat and humiliate you without anyone trying to stop me or the rock drops and all life ends. All because you couldn't stand the idea that someone beat you in a game of cards," Trixie said as she taps her bat into Roark's mouth.
"Just kill me," Roark shouted.
"What and end your suffering? I think not. No I want you to live like you did with John Hartigan the police detective who refused to bow to the corruption that has engulfed this city. His last case prior to his retirement is the investigation of a serial killer and rapist, who preys on prepubescent girls. He eventually discovers that the killer is Roark Junior, your late son Senator Roark. Despite rampant corruption in the legal system and numerous attempts on his life by you, he pursued the case," Trixie said followed by another swing of her bat at Roark's torso.
"Not true," Roark said.
"On his last night on the job, Hartigan is called to rescue Junior's newest intended victim, 11-year-old Nancy Callahan. His partner Bob who was secretly accepting bribes from you petitions him to let the case go, but Hartigan refuses, punching Bob out and proceeding to the crime scene alone. Once there, he dispatches Roark Junior's henchmen and brutally punishes Roark Junior, shooting off the rapist's left ear, right hand, and genitals. Before Hartigan can kill Junior, Bob arrives on the scene and shoots Hartigan in the back several times, and in the chest shortly thereafter," Trixie said.
"No!" Roark shouted.
"That night, you Senator Roark visits Hartigan in the hospital, telling John that he will be framed for raping Nancy, and threatens to kill anyone who knows the truth. You pays to cure Hartigan's angina to ensure the detective will not be spared any misery. Hartigan is tortured by Liebowitz of the police department and never confesses to the crime during the trial, but he doesn't say a word concerning Junior's guilt and allows himself to be convicted as a child rapist," Trixie said.
"You can't prove it!" Roark shouted out.
"Oh really?" Trixie said as she snaps her fingers and two robots came with Ethan Roark who is being held up between them. And he was tossed next to his father.
"You had Junior undergoes years of surgeries to repair his limbs and genitals. Not because you love him, oh no you don't love him anymore as he loves you as he hates you for killing his mom. No you had him rebuilt because you hope to get some grandchildren from him to continue on with the family name as you and your two brothers are the only ones left of your generation. But as everyone can see the surgeries leave Junior horribly disfigured; he now has bright yellow skin and blood, and emits a disgusting stench," Trixie said.
"He's not my son!" Roark shouted out hoping to save face.
"Oh come on now? Why lie at this point? Besides unlucky for you, your son loves to video tape his rapes to enjoy them later. And here's one that has you in it," Trixie said as a screen appeared in the air again.
Junior is in his room in the Roark mansion with the dead body of another girl he had just killed. When his father entered the room and began talking to him about giving him some grandkids and to stop with his games. It goes back and forth till Roark Sr. leaves the room.
"I have copied the tapes and given them out all over and I mean all over to every police department, news station and government agencies all over the world. And given the originals to your old friend senator Brovo who hates you and now has hard evidents of you aiding your rapist son in his killings. In fact I had my robots also upload all your files in your money matters to the IRS who be coming after you for all the tax frauds you have done. Also thanks to your connections to the local crime families I also broke into their files and given the information of their money laundries to the IRS as well. And unlike other agencies you can't just threaten them or blackmail them into submission as anyone does ends up under a microscope. Which you, Roark are now under," Trixie explains. (1)
Trixie pulls out a ray gun and points it at the two Roarks. She pulls the trigger and fires a beam of energy at the father and son pair. Both of them began screaming and losing bowl control as their bodies shake underneath the beam of energy.
"It's called the Agony Matrix. Direct neuro-stimulation of pain receptors... All of them. Imagine the worst pain you have ever felt in your life times a thousand. Now imagine that pain continuing forever. ...Oh, that's right. You two don't have to imagine," Trixie said as she lets go of the trigger.
"No more!" Roark Sr. begged.
"Type your password and I'll stop," Trixie said.
"Yes," Roark Sr. said as he type in his password and the transfer of money started emptying the entire Roark family wealth from the different bank accounts and holdings.
"Good and now, I take my leave," Trixie said as a portal opens in front of her. She turns to a camera of a news crew. "And I do hope the Roark family gets what's coming to them or maybe, I'll spread the word of this planet to some space pirates and other low lives in the galaxy of how easy it was for me to do what I wanted here."
With that Trixie enters the portal and the robots all teleported away and the spaceships all flew into space. Leaving behind a shaken planet who were under threat of a world ending event by the giant space rock that was hang over them. All because of Senator Roark Sr. being a sore loser. Which everyone attention was turned to them and the wrath that would follow would leave Roark wishing for his death.

Later -
In the ruins of Tokyo Sailormoon gasped for breath as she pulls herself from the rubble of the building that she was thrown into. Dazed she tries to remember what happen and how she got here. Then she remembers the nightmare that her world has become.
From space a warlord that no one on Earth had to ever face appeared seeking the Infinity Stones. They are singularities that existed before the Big Bang that created the universe. And all six ended up on Earth, which is why the warlord name Thanos came.
He began by seeking the Mighty One in America a young boy name Max. For in his red cap that Max wore is the Space Stone. That allowed him and his two companions to open portals to anywhere they wanted. Thanos killed the 3 and gain the power to open portals to other dimensions.
Thanos traveled to the dimension of Mewni seeking the Power Stone that rested on the head of Glossaryck. Only Princess Star was the only survivor of her family who escape with the help of queen Eslipsa who escaped with her daughter and husband. They escape to Earth where Marco an earth boy who Star befriended told them to alert all the other heroes.
But even with the warning some didn't listen thinking they be able to handle things. Thanos army attacked the Soul Society next to take the Soul Stone from the Soul King which allowed the dimension of spirits to exist. Once Thanos took the Soul Stone, all the spirits simply broke away into ash.
Then Thanos set his sights on the Ghost Zone where Clockwork the ghost of time dwells. Even with the help of Danny Phantom, XJ-9, Jake Long, Juniper Lee, Ben 10 and his friends with the help of another Time Traveler Professor Paradox with other American heroes. They couldn't stop Thanos as he ripped the Time Stone from Clockwork's body.
Thanos then came for the Mind Stone that lay inside the Millennium Puzzle that Yugi Mutou wore around his neck. Which is where Sailormoon came in, with other heroes from all across Japan. Everyone who could fight threw themselves at Thanos to stop him, all the magical warriors and girls, demons, gods, robots, even highschool kids who knew how to fight step up to fight.
Moon had used her wand to try to destroy the Millennium Puzzle to keep Thanos from getting it and she did destroy it. But Thanos had used the Time Stone to reverse time back before the puzzle was destroyed. He grabbed her wand when she tried to destroy it again, blasting her into a building.
"Funny I thought that the final stone would be located far from here. But you gave it to me," Thanos said as he held the moon wand that held the silver crystal.
"What?" Moon asked taken by surprise when what he just said.
"Your family had this for generations which had seeped its way into you," Thanos said as he crushes the wand to pieces and held the crystal. "The Reality Stone that you and your line never truly understood which power is inside of you."
"Inside me?" Moon asked.
"Yes," Thanos said as he places the last stone in place on the Infinity Gauntlet giving him complete control over the power that each of the stones held. Moon gave out a scream as the power that the Reality Stone had given to her and those who held the the bloodline of the royal Moon family.
"What have you done?" Moon asked unable to move from where she had fallen.
"What must be done," Thanos said as he snaps his fingers before teleporting away.
From where Moon stood she could only gasp in horror as the heroes who had shown up to help fight began turning to ash before fading away. Across the universe half of all life in the universe and the dimensions connected to it, turn to ash before breaking apart and leaving no trace behind. Moon looked down at herself as her own body broke apart, she looked up in time to see her fellow scouts calling to her before she finally faded away.
Outside the universe Twilight had been scanning universes to visit and saw the last part of Thanos erasing half of all life in that universe. Seeing how powerful Thanos is and that he still has the Infinity Gauntlet with all the power stones, he's way above their weight class. She alerted the guild and a veteran squad would handle things.
Across the multi-verse the guilds alarm was sent for one of it's many teams to handle someone of Thanos threat level. On his little planet the Little Prince hitched onto a shooting star into the portal that opened over his planet. On her ship a adult Pippi Longstockings set sail into the open portal. From her home Wendy the good witch and her friend since childhood Casper both step into the portal. From the town of Frostbitefalls, Rocky and Bullwinkle put on their gear before stepping into the portal. And the final member of the team, The Iron Man a towering iron giant step into the giant size portal to join his team. (2)
"Wait those guys are veterans who can handle Thanos who has the power of the Infinity Gauntlet?" Kasumi asked.
"Why are you so surprise? Charlie Brown is a one man army," Naruto said.
"True," Kasumi said.
"What do we do now?" Twilight asked.
"I for one would like to...," Trixie began but was stop by Sunset.
"Oh no. You got to pick the last one and we ended up holding that Earth hostage so that you could beat that scumbag after he acted like a sore loser," Sunset said.
"It did end well with him being exposed along with his rapist son," Trixie said.
"How about we go around collecting treasure?" Naruto asked.
"Ok," Twilight said liking how Naruto is getting back that spark he had before he learned the truth of himself and what his village really saw him as. Nothing but a weapon to die for them.
"So back to looting some dead worlds again?" Trixie asked.
"That and where we can easily get treasure," Twilight said taking the controls and opening up the portal machine.

Later -
Their first stop took them to the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' verse. Right after the events of the first movie. The treasure cave that the cursed pirates had amassed over the years for the day when the curse is broken. Had sunk underneath the sea before anyone could get to the treasure. At least before the people of that world did, Twilight took the cursed gold coins to see if the curse still works even in another universe while the others took all the other loot. The only one who knew they were even there was the undead monkey.
The next stop was the 'The Jungle Book' verse. The huge treasure chamber of the temple deep in the jungle of a now vanished dynasty that Mowgli discovered. Kasumi led the robot team to loot the treasures within, while Naruto showed King Louie how to make fire.
Then the 'Banjo-Tooie' verse was next. The treasure chamber in the Mayahem Temple that is full of piles of gold. Which no one seemed to want so Twilight and the gang went and took all the treasures within.
In the world of 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' the Disney version. Seeing how the dwarves throw away the gems that they don't want and don't sound good. Trixie traded some barrels of beer, ale and wine, and some food stuff for the gems.
In the world of 'Congo' with the ancient mine guarded by trained killer gorillas. Which is the reason why the lost city of Zinj was abandon as the race of hyper-territorial gorillas bred by the people of Zinji, did their job of guarding the city too well. With the robots scaring the gorillas away and setting up force fields, the gang took all the diamonds.
They came to an Earth in the Marvel Verse, the one where after a nuclear war left only the Hulk alive. They recovered the intact machines and valuables underneath the ground in long forgotten underground bases and what nots. They also discovered the Hulk who after Banner's death from a heart attack, was the only one left. Who even after they offered their help in taking him someplace else refused to leave, wanting to die on his terms.
Then they went to an Earth in the DC verse, of the Justice Friends cannon. Where after the Legion of Doom tried to kill the Super Friends with a solar flare and the heroes using a force field to stop it but the solar flare combine with the force field created a radiation field that killed all life on the planet. With only Superman surviving long enough to leave a recording, which eons later a group of travelers with god like powers would reverse time and stop it from ever happening. But before that the gang help themselves to all the advance technology and items found in the DC world.
!
On another Earth -
"This place is a dump," Trixie said who is like the others is wearing her spacesuit.
The Earth they found is something they have seen before, a heavily polluted planet with the human race having died off. The air unbreathable, the water nothing more then toxic sludge, the ground barely seen in most places thanks to all the garbage piled up. There is little life left on the planet with it only being bugs and mold. It looks like the humans of this world tried to survived in dome cities before they failed too and from the looks of the domes from fighting among themselves.
"But it's full of resources," Twilight said.
She is overseeing the robots as they brought in trash by the truckload. Which are dump into the recycling machine that broke down the trash into 4 main raw materials, organic, mineral, synthetic, and in rare cases exotic. With each material having sub categorizes from what kind of metal, what kind of organic materials to if it's oil based. The machine is an industrial size Material Recycler that Twilight got from a Rick from the Prey universe who used some upgrades he got from the Fallout verse to break down things more. It made things easier to deal with worlds that are covered in garbage.
Twilight even deployed the machines she got from a Rick from Horizon Dawn universe. Which she's doing so that she could get a supply of blaze and chillwater, which are a bio-fuel and a liquid nitrogen like chemical coolant from the terra-former and the purifier machines. She's also using the recycler machines the Glinthawks and Scrappers to help in breaking down large pieces of trash to fit in the transports, with the transport class machines helping with the load. And the recon machines to find the good trash sending data to the Tallnecks the communication class machines.
"And the money here are the same besides the date," Sunset said having broken into a couple of banks and emptied them out after confirming the paper money and coins are the same. As sometimes the money is too different to be passed off in other worlds they normally go to.
"Girls!" Kasumi voice called to them on their coms. "Me and Naruto found something you all need to see. Teleport to our location."
"You heard her," Twilight said as she and the others teleported away leaving the robots to continue on their work.
Twilight and the others founds themselves on an island with the ship that Kasumi and Naruto took when they went off to explore. Kasumi was there waiting for them and lead them to a underground cavern that Naruto found when the scanner picked up some strange readings on the island. Once in the cave they saw why Kasumi called them, as the entire cavern is made out of some kind of white crystal, with a center room that has a giant broken crystal orb in them middle. The dried husk of a woman laid on the floor, in her hands that are cupped together are 5 rings. And Naruto is standing in front of the woman.
"Why did you call us for this?" Trixie ask.
"She asked for it," Naruto said.
A ghost appeared over the dead body of the woman. She is a beautiful, mature woman with tan skin, dark hair with lighter streaks and light-colored eyes. She wears a long, purple dress, purple shoes, a thin, golden headband and two long, light-colored decorative pieces of material, one of which is wrapped around her left upper arm and the other is tied together with a hem of her dress on her right shoulder.
"Gaia?" Sunset ask recognizing her from the cartoon, which means this world is one that the villains 'won' if you could called it winning.
"Yes, I sensed you all when you started to clean up my world," Gaia said. "I'm still too weak and used up to do anything more then this. But I thank you for what you're doing. Naruto has been telling me about you. It's been a very long time since travelers from another universe have visited me."
"We can leave some of our robots here with a factory to make more to clean up your world," Trixie said.
"But even then it will take many years for your world to be like what it was before humans started to kill their world," Twilight said.
"It be enough, I can wait and see new life return to my world. I have done so in the past. I hope that the new life won't follow the same path as the humans of my world. I only wish that the humans had listen to my planeteers," Gaia said.
"Some worlds have humans who do and others don't," Kasumi said.
"Here take their rings, as my thanks. Captain Planet needs to see worlds that did see their errors and did save their earths," Gaia said.
The 5 power rings floated up and flew to the gang. Twilight got the Earth Ring, Trixie the Water Ring, Sunset the Fire Ring, Kasumi the Wind Ring, and Naruto got the Heart Ring.
"You are now the new planeteers," Gaia said before disappearing having spent what's left of her energy to appear in front of them. Now she will rest and recover as the machines the travelers brought heal her world.
"Well this is going to be interesting," Twilight said wondering what her new magic ring can really do.
